A rare opportunity to acquire a fine late 16th century

farmhouse complimented by an extensive range of converted

barns and outbuildings on the edge of this highly sought after

village which is set amongst arguably some of North Norfolk’s

prettiest countryside.

Warners End Farm is the perfect example of a period home with

extensive outbuildings set within well-tended and landscaped

grounds of around 1 acre, subject to survey, all set amongst some

of the most celebrated Norfolk countryside the county has to offer.

The property, and its adjoining barns and outbuildings, have been

extensively refurbished by the current owners in recent years

retaining many of the original features and paying meticulous

attention to detail. Situated at the end of a quiet country lane and

surrounded by idyllic farm and woodland, Warners End Farm

enjoys the wide, open, uninterrupted views that North Norfolk is

so famed for from both the house and many of the adjoining barns

and outbuildings.

THE PROPERTY

The traditional brick and flint farmhouse under a

pantile roof is approached via a pretty covered

entrance porch. The solid oak front door leads to

an entrance hall with a traditional pamment floor

and exposed beams. The large double aspect sitting

room has a heavily beamed ceiling and a mellow red

brick fireplace with pamment hearth housing a

multi-fuel stove. A rear hall leads to a cloakroom,

recently refurbished with Italian marble, and a study

with traditional pamment flooring and fitted office

furniture. The hallway also leads to a well-

proportioned, double aspect dining room with a

mellow red brick fireplace with a wooden bressumer

beam and pamment hearth housing a wood burner.

A further inner hall leads to the kitchen/breakfast

room which has a double aspect, traditional pamment

flooring and a timbered and vaulted ceiling.

This room is extensively fitted out with a range of

handmade wooden units and a fireplace housing an

electric Aga and Aga companion. Double doors

lead to the gardens. Complementing the kitchen is

a utility room and a walk-in pantry. On the first

floor, a split level landing leads to a triple aspect

master bedroom with an attractive period fireplace

and an en-suite shower room. There are also three

further bedrooms and a bathroom.

CURTILAGE

The property has two entrances. To the front of

the house is a gravelled parking area. A second

entrance through automatic gates leads to a large

gravelled parking area and to the garage block

and apartment, cottage and studio. A gate leads

to the swimming pool complex. Childproof and

fully enclosed, the pool area is both private and

secluded, the pool is heated and has a full

automatic childproof cover. Overlooking the

pool is a summer house with a vine.

The filter house has a changing room,

a cloakroom and shower. The well-tended main

gardens are to the east of the house and are

mostly laid to lawn with various inset mature

flower and shrub beds and patio areas. There is

a further double gated entrance and the garden

is fully enclosed and dog proof.

The grounds extend to around 1 acre

(subject to survey).

LOCATION

Saxlingham is a small village with little more than a selection of attractive, mainly period houses and St. Margaret’s – a 15th century church largely restored in Victorian times. Around

2.5 miles to the north is the coastal village of Blakeney with its narrow streets containing flint faced houses and its Quay which gives access to salt marshes and sailing, seal and bird

watching and many other leisure pursuits. This is a designated area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with wonderful coastal and inland walks. About 3.5 miles to the east is the Georgian

market town of Holt with an increasing variety of restaurants, pubs, shops and galleries and Gresham’s Schools. Around 25 miles to the south is the city of Norwich. Norwich has a

mainline railway station to London (Liverpool Street) and to the north of the city is Norwich Airport with worldwide connections via Amsterdam.

Adjacent to the farmhouse is a traditional red brick and flint barn under a pantile roof

currently used as an art gallery. Oak doors with handmade door fittings lead to an

impressive open space with a double aspect, floor to ceiling fireplace and chimney,

services enabling a kitchen to be fitted. A staircase leads to the first floor and two good

size bedrooms and a bathroom.

Adjoining the cottage is a triple aspect studio/office with a timbered and vaulted ceiling

and a cloakroom. A door leads to a further double aspect office and this in turn leads

to a light, bright and airy artist’s studio with wonderful uninterrupted views over the

adjacent countryside.

Attached to the studio is a store room and a mezzanine storage area. Steps leads down

from the studio to a summer room, with a terracotta floor, heavily timbered ceiling

and a wine store. Two pairs of double doors lead to a secluded enclosed courtyard with

a large oak pergola. This makes a wonderful entertaining and barbecue area.

A short distance away is a detached garage block with a first floor apartment.

The garage block comprises two double garages with electric doors and a storage room.

An external staircase leads to the first floor and to a spacious well-appointed apartment

comprising a triple aspect open plan sitting room/ bedroom with double doors leading
